    Financing through Bank

    Right. Did not know if prices varied depending on region, but I guess it would be agency/floor priced everywhere

    BX with Tiller

    Its fair to say there is a decent market for tiller work in your area? I thought about hunting out a used one, there’s one actually for sale close by now. An RTR1250 for $1500, can’t quite pull the trigger on. I have a lot of use for it though on my own property though too, combined with...

    Landscape Rake?

    Thank you. I am currently trying to figure out how big of a BB a BX23S can handle. Im confident I have read somewhere that once you go “too big” the tractor cannot pull it due to the wheels spinning. I always had in mind that a 4’ box blade would be the correct fit

    Financing through Bank

    I have the Kubota financing with my BX from the beginning of last year. My question pertains to upgrading, assuming through having to go through a bank. BUT, selling my machine out right, to then do a whole new deal I guess is an option. Like I said, an L series is what my mind wanders on. I...

    Financing through Bank

    Trying to see what kind of experiences people have had going through personal/private banks to secure financing for a tractor purchase. I currently have a BX23S, but do day dream often of upgrading to perhaps an L25 or 33. I see great deals now and again through private seller that get my mind...

    Landscape Rake?

    Thank you! Any recommendations on sizing? I have heard the BX23S (mine) can handle a LR up to 6’? But a box blade should be kept to 4’ for traction reasons. Is this accurate?

    Landscape Rake?

    Well put! Thank you! That solidified my answer, most likely getting a box blade first. Then a landscape rake in the nearer future

    Landscape Rake?

    I was kind of figuring both would be best, but I am also trying to determine my best bang for the buck, essentially. Local dealer recommended LR, but I just don’t see it being very efficient on a hard packed gravel driveway that definitely needs grooming. I am leaning towards box blade, and...

    Landscape Rake?

    Let me clarify, I would not be tilling the driveway.😅 I mentioned tilling other areas, and following with landscape rake. My concern is the landscape rake being able to bust up the gravel How does the box grader do for stripping ground to soil? Trying to make the right $700 decision

    Landscape Rake?

    Hi all So not to bring up a well aged debate, but I’m trying to figure out where I will get the most value, a landscape rake or box grader, for my current needs. For my needs, I have a good sized gravel driveway, that is well compacted and very hard when dry. But it does soften a bit after...

    Backhoe boom lift BX23

    Hey Dusty Its a 23S. Thanks for the insight, I will reach out to them. What you mentioned would sound right. Sometimes it won’t feel resistant, but most of the time it does.

    Backhoe boom lift BX23

    Hey all Had a question I was hoping to get some help on. I was using my machine earlier today, when I noticed the left hand boom lift handle performing different. All of a sudden, it seemed like I had to put more pressure than normal when pulling back on the handle to lift the boom. It...
